EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene straight out of Jules Verne's iconic novel, "Journey to the Centre of the Earth". The image showcases a lava protrusion adorned with hanging lamps, evoking an eerie and otherworldly atmosphere. Created by George Roux in the 19th century, this artwork beautifully brings to life one of Verne's most thrilling adventures. The lamps suspended on the lava formation serve as a reminder of the characters' perilous journey deep into the Earth's core. As readers delve into Verne's imaginative tale, they are transported alongside Professor Otto Lidenbrock and his companions through treacherous underground landscapes filled with danger and mystery. Leonard de Selva expertly captures this pivotal moment in his photograph, allowing us to appreciate both Roux's intricate engraving work and Verne's vivid storytelling. The juxtaposition between the harsh volcanic rock and delicate light sources creates a visually striking composition that draws viewers further into this fantastical world. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing print, we can't help but feel a sense of awe at humanity's ability to imagine such extraordinary realms. It serves as a testament to both literature’s power to transport us beyond our wildest dreams and art’s ability to bring those dreams tangibly before our eyes.
